We got a taste of Scotland’s most famous tipple whilst checking out one of London’s most iconic landmark by booking a Vinopolis Whisky Tasting Experience on the London Eye.
As guests we were guided through a tasting that highlighted the unique characteristics of five delicious varieties of whisky and offered a selection of savoury nibbles to complement each flavour whilst enjoying the unrivalled views of the breathtaking London skyline.
For anyone especially interested, or trying to look flash, I’d recommend that people try the private Whisky Tasting for a more personal experience. With the opportunity to taste Scotland’s finest from 135m above London in your own private capsule, and an expert from Vinopolis on hand to guide you through each individually crafted whisky, delivering an unforgettable experience.
Tom Forrest from Vinopolis said: “The London Eye is the perfect setting to educate your palates on how to fully taste and truly enjoy our selection of fine whiskies – we’ll talk you through the process involved in creating such delights whilst you take in the ever changing views of the best city in the world.”
Available every second Saturday at 5.30pm.
